First, someone releases an “exclusive article” that SeungGi and Kang Ho Dong have been confirmed for a new outdoor variety program with Na PD. Then someone else supposedly quotes Na PD as saying that he IS preparing a variety show with 1N2D members including KHD and SeungGi that feels like a reunion and they hope to start filming in mid August. But Hook immediately tells another reporter that they didn’t hear anything about SeungGi joining a variety program with KHD and Na PD.

Update:

Hook tells a different reporter that they did not receive a detailed proposal, but they did receive a love call for the new variety program. They voiced their intention to join, and it’s under positive review.

Hook tells a 3rd reporter that they received a proposal, and it’s under positive review, but they have not decided to join yet.

Posted on Jul 19, 2015by tryp96

*updated* Writer: Kim Dong Hyuk, PD: Hong Chang Pyo

Lee Seung Gi, 2nd screen challenge through ‘The Face Reader’ production company Jupiter Film’s new movie

Singer/actor Lee Seung Gi has been finalized as the male lead of the movie ‘궁합’ (GoongHap, Marital Harmony). ‘GoongHap’ is planned as the 2nd movie in the ‘Divination Trilogy’ by Jupiter Film, the production company of ‘The Face Reader’ that was released in 2013, so it’s highly anticipated and there has been heightened attention on who will take on the leading roles.

Several movie insiders told The Fact on July 20, “Lee Seung Gi has been confirmed as the male lead of ‘GoongHap’ and the only thing left is the technicality of signing the contract.” One insider explained, “Lee Seung Gi read the scenario and showed positive response. He’s negotiated the specifics recently and has decided to star in the movie.”

Actress Shim Eun Kyung has been cast as the female lead.

The production company will finish casting soon, and filming is scheduled to begin in September.

GoongHap is a romantic comedy sageuk that looks into secretive man-woman relationships through goonghap to work out two people’s future.

‘The Face Reader’ was very successful, attracting over 9 million viewers, so its follow-up movie in the trilogy has naturally come into the spotlight. ‘GoongHap’ is reportedly a little more cheerful than ‘The Face Reader’ and has a more lighthearted subject matter, the internal assessment is that Lee Seung Gi’s gentle image fits the character perfectly.

Here’s a blog post on the concept/practice of GoongHap if anyone’s curious.

 

Lee Seung Gi, Movie ‘Marital Harmony’ Casting Confirmed

Posted on Jul 19, 2015by tryp96

Lots of “confirmation” articles, and no denials from Hook, so I guess it’s really confirmed. Here are some more details on the story and characters.

2015072001001168400079242.jpg

 

Sageuk romance ‘GoongHap’ depicts the story of Princess SongHwa who rejects a destiny of having to marry based on goonghap, 4 royal son-in-law candidates who each has a different Four Pillars, and royal family’s genius goonghap specialist DoYoon who figures out their marital compatibility.

Shim Eun Kyung plays Princess SongHwa and, with unique friendly charm and subtle emotional acting, she’s expected to express a character who rejects a destiny of not being able to marry as she pleases due to her royal blood and daringly leaves the palace to look for her own partner.

Actor Lee Seung Gi takes on the role of goonghap specialist ‘Seo Do Yoon‘ who’s recognized for his remarkable talent in the study of Four Pillars of Destiny and assigned the tremendous responsibility of predicting the marital compatibility between Princess SongHwa and the royal son-in-law candidates. He’s anticipated to show off acting of charismatic features, hidden pain and hovering between reason and emotion.

Idols Take Over the Silver Screen in 2016

It appears that idols are continuing to break the mold by taking on the world of film well into the next year.

At the Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) on October 3, CJ Entertainment revealed its lineup of films set to be released in 2016. The cast lists include a number of well-known idols, including miss A’s Suzy, EXO’s Xiumin and D.O, and singer Lee Seung Gi.

201510040445777568_56103242acd9a_99_2015

Some of the films in the lineup are “Collective Invention,” “Asura,” “Night of Seven Years” (based on the novel of the same title), “Gosanja, Daedong Yeojido.” The films set to be released are in a variety of genres, and feature a number of surprising idol debuts as well as comebacks.

Two of these are from global Hallyu group EXO, who are slowly gaining building a reputation in dramas and films. Member D.O is set to star in “Hyung” (working title) while Xiumin will debut in the historical comedy “Kim Seon Dal” (working title).

Suzy of miss A, known as the “nation’s first love” after her role in “Architecture 101,” is making her return to the silver screen through “Dorihwaga” (The Hymn), directed by Lee Jong Pil. The film is about a Joseon-era pansori (traditional Korean musical storytelling) master who teaches his art to the young daughter of a shamaness.

Although not really an idol singer, Lee Seung Gi will be appearing in “Chemistry” with director Hong Chang Pyo. The film is in the same series as 2013’s “The Face Reader,” and tells the story of a fortune teller who predicts compatibility between marriage prospects. Lee Seung Gi will be working with actress Shim Eun Kyung in this project.

The 20th Busan International Film Festival runs from October 1 to 10.
